This illustration is created for a local auther who required a book cover for a new SciFi book that will be released in early 2013. The book will be published as a limited edition hard back edition and also in a digital format online.

The book will also feature a small selection of illustrations to highlight key events in the story and this will hark back to the early days of Sci-Fi illustration in the 50's.

More information to come once the book is launched. The illustration is created in Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop.

This is my first drawing in about ten years so its pretty rough. Apart from trying to remember how to draw a moving subject, I was also learning how to use my new Bamboo Pen and Touch made by Wacom.Capturing my sons likeness while he was playing proved to be a challenge but I think it's a good start and next time I will try Photoshop.

Those of you that have been looking at my MozBlog over the last year will have picked up on my interest in Illustration. The arrival of my daughter in the summer of 2012 had slowed that process down but I plan to get going with this in 2016....maybe!
